I used to work across the street from Johnny's Kitchen & Tap at Lake and Milwaukee in Glenview, and just down the street from Elly's Pancake House on Milwaukee. Both have very good "homemade" soups that change daily.

However, I just remembered my most favorite place to get soup on weekdays -- Salerno's in Mt. Prospect, which was a short drive from my office. Oh my heavens! While their Italian specialties are quite delicious, I always fell for a cup of soup and their tuna sandwich, supposedly made from a Carnegie Deli recipe. I would always have to bring home half a sandwich, but that really wasn't a burden. Actually, I don't think I ever had a bad meal from Salerno's. I don't know if there's any relationship between this location and other Salerno's around the suburbs, but I just loved the food from here!
